Unique Vintage Hanky Dress



Okay, I saw this and totally fell in love!!! I have started making dresses for our little LaLa and can't wait to put the pictures up! Oh wait... that's right... I don't have a camera anymore!!!! LaLa decided it needed a bath!!!! This one only last 3 months! Ugh! Got to get better at hiding it all!! LOL! Oh well, will just have to do till I find another.


Tanya, over at Trey & Lucy has this great tutorial on this Vintage Hanky Dress. Sigh... maybe one day I'll get to all these projects!!!



Here's A Gorgeous Laundry Room Make Over!!

So, I've been busy, busy with our new home and have been away too long from my blogging world! Between orders, decorating, and the terrible two's of my twins, it's been so CRAZY!



So, anyways, Sausha, over @ {Show & Tell} has this awesome redo of her laundry room that I think I will have to try! I don't have a saw, so I'll have to have Lowe's or Home Depot cut the would correctly. I love this idea and can't wait to do this! My laundry room is almost the same exact size and it would look so perfect!!

Custom Ruffle Butt Onesie, Mechanic Onesie, Blocks, & Bibs!

So I had a custom order for a couple of baby showers and a set of baby blocks and was thrilled to do as I chose to it all!! I had my LaLa model it all before it was shipped out! Here is a Ruffle Butt Onesie w/ a Layered Flower on front. I LOVE IT!




The Ruffle Butt is and will always be my favorite part of making onesies! i make them look real vintage and worn and they always come out so cute!

Mr. Tristan tried on the Mechanic Onesie and modeled for me. There is a car in front and a wrench on the back butt. :) I do think from now on I will be doing the boys onesies in color. Like a washed out gray or black or dark blue. They'll be much more interesting!

Next up where the Bibs to match the Onesies and again, Miss LaLa modeled the Layered Flower Bib!



Here's Mr. Avery modeling the Bib that matches the Mechanic Onesie.

I had a set of blocks also to make and I wanted them very rustic and old looking. I did realize that I hae to apply a sealer over Mod Podge though. These pictured were not the actual ones shipped. Since we live in the south of the great state of Texas, it naturally gets oven hot here! LOL! Well, the post office was my last stop of the day and when I got there, I realized that the Mod Podge had become tacky from the heat and stuck few blocks together! Ugh!! Back home and had to redo some. But, my mother showed me some kind of sealer to spray on and now they are done and gone. What a pain!! If only I had known that a BEFORE!!! LOL!

Custom Tutus and Mini Top Hats!

It's been a few since I've been on here but I've been planning my daughters 1st birthday and that has taken up so much time!!! I have two Tutus that she wore for her birthday and am so proud of how well they turned out! I started them awhile ago and just kept adding as time went on. I guess I was never fully satified with the outcome! But I am now!! If you are looking for a beautful and unique Tutu, such as one like these please let me know! I can do just about anything you want to it!




I saw all these cute mini Top Hats for adults but wanted one for my little angel and decided that I could make one! I LOVE the way it came out!!! If you would like a custom one, I can put them on these scrunchie headbands or a hard plastic band! Let me know! No two will ever be alike!

She is so photogenic!! Don't you just LOVE her bow!? Of course I made it!
